The the R 9 280X. Sapphire is one of the biggest and best brands for AMD graphics card in my opinion.

Within hat budget I would go with AMD if you are not recording gameplays. Because Nvidia users can take advantage if Shadowplay to record for free.

HHS it is. For silence I would go with Asus for Nvidia. But for AMD go with Gigabyte it has three fans and most of my AMD friends who are fanatics to save money say it is pretty quiet. However I am not too sure about their definition of quiet. But if you want quiet I believe the Sapphire Tri-X will do well in terms of performance and quietness.

Would make a mess of its hardware from 2008 and then laugh at its 30 fps games with a big grin on its face.
